Ah yes, the tech Genius Elon Musk. I remember when he revolutionized transportation by building the hyperloop, or when he completely changed excavation by buying a bog-standard boring machine and building exactly one tunnel that just used his cars to drive people around. Oh, remember that time when he made space travel so much cheaper by charging the exact same as what the Shuttle cost? Or remember when he took us to Mars in Starship and didn't just dump money into the Indian Ocean? Or what about that time he put Grimes in a robot suit and totally revolutionized the robotics industry? Let's not forget that one time he saved those kids in a cave with his sub. Dumb Pedo Guy thought he was slick. Yep, Elon Musk is a genius, and I will absolutely call it X any time now.

I have never thought that guy was a genius. I thought he was a good businessman. I still think there's something to that, but the man started huffing his own farts a long time ago. On the other hand, the only reason you like him is because you think he's a conservative. I, unlike you, know better, and know that he isn't interested in ideology as much as he's interested in you thinking he's cool (and making a lot of money). I am a conservative, anon. I'm just not a contrarian, which is why I won't like Elon Musk ever, and I like big cars with big engines, so he can go fuck himself on the one thing he did right as well.

this is impressive, and surely on pair with the WW2 uprise of aircraft carriers as king of the hill. Endless waves of kamikaze and electronic sabotage drones is something we will witness once the conflict really burst out.

Also the inability to admit wrongdoing because it saves face only exacerbates easy to solve problems.
The great leap forward made Chinese some of the dumbest motherfuckers for arbitrary social reasons because they are actually smart people but limited by retarded social faus pas and government having a petrological need to control literally everything.

Do you actually understand how hard is to pull a drone swarm during wartime in battlefield conditions? A drone swarm is just a big target ready to be demolished by a large caliber bomb, large yield ammunition is the reason armies back during the cold war stopped consisting in large ww2 styled formations, it's the same reason why no one at ukraine can put more than some scores of men together unless they want to get a tungsten rain to their faces through cruise missile, all these shitty propaganda videos about drone are calling back Matrix Revolutions scene were you got tunnel fights and Zion forces were too stupid to use anything other than man-guided miniguns against a swarm of bots.

Humor was a dangerous game in Nazi-Germany.
I can't remember who it was, but one of the top officers in the German army was at a meeting with Hitler and a bunch of other top brass from other branches of the military. Hitler asked the officer to swat a fly that was bothering him, and the officer replied with a joke that since the threat was airborne, swatting it was a job for the luftwaffe. Hitler was so fucking pissed at this smug joke that the officer was demoted to an enlisted man and sent to the eastern front as an infantry grunt.

Stop this meme, DOGE is a pretend agency with no power whatsoever. The real battle will be the Project 2025 purges which will be political and legal. I think it will be an utter blow-out against Trump especially since the bureaucracy has 2 months to set up defenses but who knows maybe Trump’s team will have some level of victory so I will be following it closely. DOGE is just clown shit — but that’s all Elon wants to begin with. His business model is drawing attention, capturing public mindshare and converting that into investment. TDS commentators are pushing the idea that Elon bought Twitter just to get Trump elected, but that’s a cartoon-level take it’s obviously just to keep him on top of the hype game to keep investments rolling in. Elon basically bought a spot in the Trump team as a hail marry against the Liberal power structure which had aggressively against him and it happened to work out because 11 million Dem voters stayed home. Can’t wait to ay Told You So every day for the next 4 years.

Yeah and the space shuttle initially projected a launch cost of around 1000$ per pound. They were only slighty wrong I guess.

I do care about retards like you trying to act like SpaceX hasn't done (not will do, done) anything for the US launch services market. And I realize now that it was an unfair comparison as I included development costs in the crew dragon launch cost. If you take the cost of just the two extensions the launch cost comes down to 285 million. Unless you want a true apples to apples comparison that includes development costs of the shuttle?

I think you're misunderstanding me. I don't doubt that SpaceX does provide a needed service for launches in the US. What my main complaint is the pathological nature of Musk's lying about literally every projection and timetable he has ever put forth. It's not that SpaceX doesn't deliver a product. It's that it will never deliver the product Musk says he can deliver. It's not that Tesla doesn't make cars that have some autonomous features. It's that Musk is actively lying when he says shit like you'll be able to buy a car that will make you money. This is my problem with him, and why I think he's got a cult of idiots worshiping a midwit. He's surely a great businessman. His net worth speaks for itself. What he is not is a particularly intelligent man when it comes to any subject outside of that, and this should be obvious to anyone. I do not expect that SpaceX will do the grandiose things he claims they will do. I think they will do what is generally possible with the American pool of talent, because in the end, most projects of this nature are competing over inches, not miles as he claims. Nothing he's done is miles better than the competition, other than the shameless self-marketing, and this is precisely what I have a problem with, especially when paired to his reddit cult.

I have no problem with you hating elmo. There are many valid reasons to hate elmo. You are indeed brain damaged if you worship elmo. What SpaceX did isn't just providing a needed service. ULA and Roscosmos were doing that just "fine". In this case SpaceX did provide something miles better (1/3 the $/kg of the Atlas V) than the competition. It provides a capability to the US that is without peer in the world for the moment. I take issue with you downplaying it because you don't like that Elon is a snake oil salesman. Not entirely because of you but because there's an equally large cult of redditors who are screaming to dismantle SpaceX and destroy that capability to spite him.

Damn they should make an aircraft to shoot down the aircraft that's transporting drones from far away enough that the drones don't have enough autonomy on their batteries to reach the frontline.
They should also probably make it in a way that scatters radar waves so that get really close to the frontline without being shot down. And then it could fly into the enemy's airspace and bomb the runways where the cargo aircraft take off from.

Nothing is gonna happen because Trump doesn't give a fuck what other people tell him, much less some greaseball stoner who sees him as the father figure he never had. More like Trump orders him around not the opposite.

you're super smart anon, I can't believe you made drones obsolete in warfare through your genius invention known as jamming. How could one bypass such a thing as external electrical interference?

Great Elon! How will low light sensitive fucking cameras guide your AA missiles to a target barely violating stand off distance? How will you even notice there is a target before it drops their payload?

No, you don't understand. IRST-pods will counteract your stealth so even though the F-22 launched on your aircraft without you ever detecting it, you're going to be alright!

Guess that's viable, especially now that he's involved in politics. This anti-stealth nonsense always appeals to that third-worlder mindset that's getting unfortunately more popular in the West as well.

Well, at the moment, it's fucking 0, since none of them have launched with a payload.

Augmenting optical systems with AI image recognition isn't a retarded idea. What's retarded is not understanding that even AI augmented visual detection at long range will be limited by

>Having a large enough array of them to cover a wide area
It doesn't matter if the image recognition software can recognize the image of a jet 100% of the time if you don't have sensors good enough to provide it an actual image of a Jet to recognize. And there's not much reason to think that kind of hardware would actually be cheap.

I also suspect that in a world where the DoD wasn't spending shit loads of money on F-35's, fags like Musk would be sperging out over them buying loads of billion dollar patriot batteries to cover the air-defense role, and that budget propeller drones would be intercepting fighter jets at high altitude "somehow".

>>62919338
China makes his batteries among a lot more, and he has a HUGE factory there. But, he is literally a cutout for the CIA, owned 100% by them. His original advisor (handler), Michael D. Griffin, was president and COO of In-Q-Tel, CIA's venture capital arm for US strategic interests, who just so happened to become NASAs administrator and give Musk $400 million for the Falcon-1 that was never proven, nor even built. Then gave Musk contract after contract for NASA launches. They also scalped the Northrop Grumman team that designed the rocket engine Musk uses for NASA, after NASA spent millions developing it, and had to shelf it. All SpaceX is, is NASA without having its funding controlled by Congress, or dictated what equipment they WILL use, or else. We see this with the SLS. NASA didn't want to use SLS parts to get to the moon, again, but Congress told them they had to use them because they already exist, were funded, and worked. Another neat note is Michael D. Griffin was a HUGE propionate of Brilliant Pebbles, and SDI space based weaponry.

I still can't grasp why this isn't a finished product in use already.
The writing was on the wall since the Syrian civil war with the heavy use of drones there. But before Ukraine I've only seen some bullshit technical demonstrations by the IDF, theoretical maybe in the future concepts and some weird catapult launched drones

The Russo-Ukrainian war is the answer. The technical leaps in countering drone threats, the evolution in the sophistication of drones, and the developments in drone production all put the brakes on Western 'deliverables'. Have a look at the work Ukes put in to make Western and Chinese drones work in the battlespace now (Because otherwise they wouldn't) for this to make sense if it doesn't already.

I really hate it when he does this. It doesn't even make sense in this case since the Air Force is one of his biggest customers. He should be glazing the F-35 rather than trying to pull a Neil Degrasse Tyson and show how big his super huge brain is.

TFW chinese drone swarms have 1500nm range, refuel capability, stealth, and each drone can carry 4 hypersonics. Elon is right that we should just give everything to China at this point.

>>
>>62918782
this also applies to drones but drones don't have stealth to make all the efficient targeting methods incapable.
